Road trip to get my Shelby Back.

[JRE]

What a awsome weekend went on a 10 hr 1 way Road trip from Salem Oregon to Oakland California to pick up my 1936 Shelby that I had sold to Ford Snake 11 yrs ago to pay the rent and was able to buy it back recently. Also stopped in Stockton on the way there to visit some family and go to the Jaf/Co swap meet and drop off a Shelby I sold to raise some funds for the one I bought back. And hang out with all the cabe members that where there. Got home last night and had the bike put back together by this morning. Need to hunt down a couple rivets for the head badge and a new set of John's tires and it will be done.

On your 36 Shelby is the chain ring orig. to that bike, the reason I ask is I have an early 20s Excelsior with a similar chain ring.

 

[JRE]

Yes it is.
